I think I'm such a softie sometimes... I thought I was tough after going through much... But sometimes some things can just easily make me cry. I don't think it has very much to do with my hormones or mood swings.. really.. But more to knowing that I am in a helpless situation where I know I must do something but I don't know how.. be it for myself.. or for others.. And whenever I see a fight (physically), i'll just cling on to anyone beside me.. except for strangers la.. Ya.. involuntary action.. Maybe I should get out of my well and adapt more to this corrupted world..

I made a new friend
His name was Joel
It was not planned
But it turned out well
Haha ya I was mugging with my friend yesterday for bio paper today.. we were discussing and suddenly this guy on the next table turned to us and asked if we need any help.. Before that I saw him looking at our direction quite a few times.. But I was shocked when he suddenly spoke to us.. My heart literally jumpped a little.. But he was really nice, very helpful. We asked him about some Bio stuff, man, he knew a lot. Later we talked a little and found out that he is in NUS yr 3 AND! he was an old boy in JJ. Haha.. COol right? I was touched erm no.. moved.. erm.. surprised maybe, that he even stayed with us till 11:30 to help us. Wah good samaritan. PTL. =)

Haha.. JC life is mei hua shuo. Well, there are fun times too.. maybe in the ratio 1:5. It's common once in a while to hear people talking about quitting and going Poly.. Ya especially after some demoralizing tests.. Teachers are rushing through the topics like a police chasing after a thief.. Makes me wonder if they are really imparting knowledge or merely accomplishing their tasks and and meeting their datelines. My classmate once said "The teachers can just give us the lecture notes and we can just study at home." Hey, I think that's a good idea. =) Not everyone can flow with the school system and each has their own ways they know best for themselves. Ya if only the system can be a little more flexible.. Anyway, I don't think poly life is a bed of roses too. Has tons of projects I heard. Either route is mei hua shuo.. I think it's all in your mind, your attitude. How you perceive the circumstances in your life.. Actually, I really like learning a lot.. Give me a book and I'll lock myself at home, willingly. But the thing is.. Right now, reading something out of the topics taught in school is like wasting time. You'd rather read up your boring notes because you are guaranteed that it's gonna be useful in some ways, some day.. How dreadful. It creates a boundary to education. But well, that's the way it is. And not forgetting sleep, it's like what most of us lack now.. People are sleeping less than 5 hours or not sleeping altogether.. Ya common case in my school.. This questions the essence of education.. Haha.. i realise I sound so gloomy.. Haha.. True la. Don't wanna be a hypocrite.. haha.. But well, it's always comforting to know that at the end of the day, God has already drawn out the paths that I should trek on, so if I follow His map, I'm 100% sure I won't be led to somewhere depressing.. haha.. What an adventure huh? Uncertain of what you'll face on your journey but certain that at the end it'll be worthwhile following that map faithfully. Haha.. Praise the Lord! =)
